Applying GVRP Port Setting
The GVRP Port Setting are assigned and viewed on this page.
1.
On the
Port Settings
page, enter the following information:
•
Port Select:
Choose the port from this drop-down list to assign protocol
VLAN.
•
GVRP Enabled:
Controls whether GVRP is enabled or disabled on port.
•
Registration Mode:
By default GVRP ports are in normal registration mode.
These ports use GVRP join messages from neighboring switches to prune
the VLANs running across the 802.1Q trunk link. If the device on the other
side is not capable of sending GVRP messages, or if you do not want to
allow the switch to prune any of the VLANs, use the fixed mode. Fixed mode
ports will forward for all VLANs that exist in the switch database. Ports in
forbidden mode forward only for VLAN 1.
•
VLAN Creation:
GVRP can dynamically create VLANs on switches for
trunking purposes. By enabling GVRP dynamic VLAN creation, a switch
will add VLANs to its database when it receives GVRP join messages about
VLANs it does not have.
